Priceless: The Case that Brought Down the Visa/MasterCard Bank Cartel
donkeycheese avatar reviewed on + 1255 more book reviews


Priceless is an effort to stop certain business practices and alter the anti competitive structure of an industry using US Antitrust laws as the instrument of change.

Told in the first person, Lloyd takes us into the inner workings of the case that brought down the Visa/Mastercard bank cartel. Lead counsel on the case, he shares with us how he won, saving merchants and consumers over 87 billion dollars.

If you love legal drams, you will probably enjoy Priceless. Sometimes all the technical wording became too much for me, but they are relevant to the story. Wal-Mart, The Limited, and Circuit City are just a few of the five million stores listed in the case. Mr. Constantine's political involvement prevented him from sharing his story until now.
